integrated pest management

On a normal day, Joseph Mbuji’s business is managing the production, harvest, and delivery components of his diversified Bagamoyo vegetable farm. But recently, he found himself delivering a lecture about his farm to an international audience at a Seedling Health Workshop at Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA) in Morogoro, Tanzania.

Dr. John Cardina, Professor in the Department of Horticulture and Crop Science, along with collaborating faculty in the Office of International Programs in Agriculture and four other departments in the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences (CFAES), have been awarded the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Innovation Lab project for Vegetable Crops in East Africa.
